2026 Landmark: 40% Tax Cut
April 2026 — MAJOR UPDATE: GMC implemented a 40% tax cut. Rates: ₹4/sqft → ₹3.40/sqft (24m+ road properties). Calculation shifted from built-up to carpet area — meaning for most properties, actual tax reduced by 30–40%.
Additionally, GMC approved revised property tax slabs after intervention from the UP government, ending the deadlock over earlier tax hikes. The update also revised the rental values (ARV base) used for tax calculation.
